Blue Collar Songtext
von Cory Morrow

It′s forty-five minutes nearly every way you take
But the Lord has blessed him with another trip to work today
And he's tired, but he′s thankful for everything he's got
He's never been the kind of man to cuss that old time clock

His heart is kind and his back is strong
His job′s a grind, his days are long
He is saving dimes and biding time and paying down his dues
His hands are always calloused and his collar′s always blue

Through the door by six o'clock most every single day
To sit down with his family before the meal to pray
He wouldn′t think of working on a Sunday afternoon
But he'd lend a hand to anyone before they asked him to


His heart is kind and his back is strong
His job′s a grind, his days are long
He is saving dimes and biding time and paying down his dues
His hands are always calloused and his collar's always blue

He only takes one day of rest and you′ll never find him bored
He ain't changing with the times, he's steady with the Lord

His heart is kind and his back is strong
His job′s a grind, his days are long
His heart is kind and his back is strong
His job′s a grind, his days are long
He is saving dimes and biding time and paying down his dues
His hands are always calloused and his collar's always blue
Yeah, his hands are always calloused and his collar′s always blue
